Unable to give more weightage to scheduled tribes while recruiting Police constables from Jungle Mahal (West Midnapore, Purulia and Bankura Districts), the Government has decided to recruit more number of Home Guards and National Volunteer Force (NVFs) instead. Earlier, it had been decided that 8,000 junior Police constables would be recruited and the rest, 2,000 will be home guards and NVFs. Since there is no such bar on home guards and NVFs, the state Cabinet approved that 1,145 home guards and 3,855 NVFs will be recruited from Jungle Mahal to fulfil the chief minister’s promise.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) appears to have made a climb down from their stand of getting political prisoners freed as a condition for talks with the Mamata Banerjee Government, reports The Times of India. Bandimukti Committee convener Chhoton Das, who is also one of the interlocutors appointed by the Chief Minister to mediate with the Maoists in Jungle Mahal, said in Kolkata on September 13 that the Maoists are now insisting on two conditions: the operations by the joint forces must stop and the private armed groups which have mushroomed in Junglemahal in recent months must be disarmed. "Maoists know that if talk’s progress, the release of prisoners would follow automatically," Das said. Earlier, however, the Maoists had demanded release of prisoners before the talks begin. About 10 members of CPI-Maoist are behind the bars across the State, said Das. Sixty-six tribals are also languishing in different jails for alleged Maoist links - 36 of them in Midnapore jail, 21 in Bankura and nine in Purulia.

Mamata Banerjee claimed that the Maoists wanted to kill her and union minister Mukul Roy, besides other Trinamool Congress (TMC) leaders, reports The Economic Times. "A few days back, some Maoists were seen around my house. They threatened to kill me. They have also threatened to kill Mukul and my party leader Srikanta Mahato. A few days back they held a rally in Junglemahal where a Maoist leader said all Trinamool leaders are their targets," Banerjee said. "We had a commitment. We wanted negotiations for a peaceful solution to the problem. But now I personally feel no negotiations are possible. When we are trying to create an atmosphere for talks, they are trying to break such negotiations. Peace cannot be a one way process," a Banerjee added.

Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee sent out a stern warning to Maoists saying they can't remain janus-faced and continue their killing spree while complaining about the state's human rights violations and Police excesses, reports The Times of India. "The initiative for talks can't go together with killings. You (Maoist) have to decide the future course. Who has given you the right to kill? Those who complain against police excesses as violation of human rights should clarify whether their ghastly killings conform to human rights," said Banerjee, whose rise to power started with the campaign against the land acquisition in Singur, a cause Maoists also backed.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) rejected the Chief Minister (CM) Mamata Banerjee's peace talks offer and demanded immediate withdrawal of Joint Forces from the State, reports Zee News. "We are serious about peace talks and ready for a ceasefire. We had given specific proposals to the two interlocutors on our first meeting. But the Government has to stop anti-Maoist operations by the joint forces and show willingness for peace," CPI-Maoist leader Akash said in an open letter to CM Banerjee. He accused Trinamool Congress of resorting to violence and extortion in the Jungle Mahal area. Akash said although the State Government claims that the Joint Forces operations are on hold, the Paramilitary is still carrying on the operation of hunting down Maoists in a clandestine manner. "If the Government is really keen on peace talks and want to create a congenial atmosphere, it will also have to neutralise private gangs like Janajagaran Mancha and Bhairav Bahini," the letter, a copy of which was made available to the media, said.
